Hi Angelo,

idea of a 4way horn-speaker system. Not time aligned, but in compensation mid-bass horn and mid-high would create a one point source.

Sorry but I do not get much thrill seeing this... I forsee too many problems with such a setup.

You already mentioned time-alignment so I can leave out that remark for the bass part. Pity, because when done properly will be the only way to have the real feeling of dynamics and giving the least interference of the frequency respons of each driver (acoustical cancellation and amplification - time is also phase!).

To have a real working point source (with all audible advantages) can only be done when the drivers are time aligned too....

Another critical point (at least for me) would the achieved rather high listening height.

You migth get a real good sounding system though (its all big enough for reality!) but it would not be a system for me.

ciao,

Bert
